For the shell I would stronly urge you to enable editread(1) - whether or not you plan to use the linedit features. It allows you to control exactly what keys do what and it works rather better than the terminfo stuff. Use man editread for more info - then play around. Note that editread works on MV DG/UX 4.0x - it is somewhat obscurely documented (i.e. not mentioned in either the sh or csh man page). -- Gary Bridgewater, Data General Corporation, Sunnyvale California gary@proa.sv.dg.com or {amdahl,aeras,amdcad}!dgcad.SV.DG.COM!gary Shaken but not stirred.
